hi, I'm at a loss. Our indoor only cat bolted a week ago as hasn't come back yet. She came to us as a feral kitten with her sister. They were living in our car engine. They haven't been outside of our house for over a year, except when we took them to be spayed and chipped. Her sister is perfectly content living inside, even though she is still shy and hides most of the time. This cat though is always trying to escape, this is her fourth successful escape. The other three times she came back within a few hours, just stuck on the roof, she would mew at the window to be let back in. Last Thursday as we were going out we opened the door and she purposefully ran as fast as she could out. We've spotted her a few times, under our porch and in the bushes in our yard she runs away when we see her. It's very strange because she is so nice inside, begging for attention, likes getting brushed, sleeps on our bed, sits on us. Now she acts feral outside even though we brought her in at just a few weeks old. We've tried calling her, trapping her... nothing is working. She's stressed and I'm extra worried because we're moving in a few weeks (so boxes everywhere) and we have a new baby, almost 4 months old. So lots of changes for her. We also have 3 feral cats we take care of so I don't think she will pass them to get to our front door. Any suggestions?
